How do I get a Fashion Internship?
I'd like to know how you get one at a fashion magazine or a clothing store or an independent fashion designer or from internationally reknown fashion house…
well for one thing you have to be in nyc to get anything even remotely renowned..sure there's opportunities in every city, but if you're aiming high, you have to be in manhattan. i dont know how old you are, but if you are in college or high school, go to a career or internship advisor. theyre paid to know what's available and can help you schedule an interview. if not, you still need some kind of connection..i know a lot of girls who got great internships via sisters in their sororities…or know someone's parent or friend who is in the industry helps a lot because it's terribly competitive. and then there's the usual stuff…a nice resume, lots of experience, show a strong desire to be in the fashion field, amicable personality, dress well…etc, etc.
